☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
The Philodendron White Knight thrives in medium light conditions. It prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sun exposure as it can scorch the leaves, but too little light can slow growth and reduce variegation. A spot near a window with a sheer curtain would be ideal.
? Water
??▫️ (Medium)
This plant likes its soil to be moist but not soggy. Water it when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure good drainage. In winter, reduce watering but don’t let the soil dry out completely.
?️ Temperature
?️?️?️ (Warm)
Philodendron White Knight enjoys warm temperatures, ideally between 18°C and 25°C. Keep it away from draughty areas and sudden temperature changes which can stress the plant.
? Humidity
??? (High)
High humidity levels mimic the Philodendron’s native tropical environment. Aim for 60% or higher. Regular misting, a pebble tray, or a humidifier can help achieve this.
? Repotting
Repot your Philodendron every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix to prevent waterlogging. Consider adding a moss pole to support its climbing habit and encourage larger leaf growth.
? Pet Friendliness
Be cautious as Philodendrons are toxic to pets. If ingested, they can cause irritation and swelling of the mouth and digestive tract. Keep this plant out of reach of curious pets.
? Recommended locations at home
Place your Philodendron White Knight in a warm, humid spot with indirect light such as a well-lit bathroom or kitchen. Avoid placing it near heaters or air conditioning vents.
? Air Purifying
Philodendrons are known for their air-purifying qualities. They can help remove indoor pollutants like formaldehyde, making them a healthy addition to your home.
